Description:James Mesi and Luke Gitakulu talk about directions of travel, seated under a house by the village square in Laato village.
The project documents oral texts on traditions and daily life in the Reef Islands, covering 8 villages and 73 speakers ranging in age from 15 to 93. The materials were recorded in September-October 2015.
James Mesi and Luke Gitakulu, who come from different villages on Lomlom island, discuss how directions of travel are described in their respective communities: whether one goes 'up', 'down', 'in' or 'out' to another village, and which terms apply to travel to other islands and across longer distances.
Åshild Næss is recording. James Mesi and Luke Gitakulu are speaking. The recording was transcribed and translated by Philip Paikai and Åshild Næss.
